蒙波斯1540年建立于马格达莱纳河河岸旁,在西班牙统治南北美洲时扮演着一个十分重要的角色。从16世纪至19世纪这个城市逐渐发展到跟河流平行,一些主要街道都担当着河堤的作用。其建立时与城市周围景观和谐地融合。现在大部分建筑物仍保留原来的使用目的,提供了一幅西班牙殖民地的特殊的画面。
Founded in 1540 on the banks of the River Magdalena, Mompox played a key role in the Spanish colonization of northern South America. From the 16th to the 19th century the city developed parallel to the river, with the main street acting as a dyke. The historic centre has preserved the harmony and unity of the urban landscape. Most of the buildings are still used for their original purposes, providing an exceptional picture of what a Spanish colonial city was like.
